Start your morning with a warm, comforting breakfast that’s hearty, protein-packed, and lightly sweet. This Maple Oat Bake combines wholesome oats, a touch of nut butter, and just enough maple syrup to make every bite satisfying. Perfect for weekend brunch, meal prep, or a cozy weekday breakfast. The recipe is versatile and forgiving. You can stir in fresh or frozen berries, chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or unsweetened coconut for added texture and flavor.
